STAIN REMOVAL
STAIN REMOVAL DURING WORKS
Rust Apply an anti-rust product or oxalic acid. Rinse thoroughly.
Food grease/paint/ballpoint pen/felt-tip pen/heavy grease (tar) Apply a solvent such as Essence C or White Spirit. Rub with undiluted product and rinse with plenty of water.
Rubber marks/Shoe marksApply an alkaline detergent (such as Dynatech Trophy) to shoe marks. Leave to act for 5 minutes. Rub.
Chewing-gum Use a freeze spray to harden the chewing gum, and then remove it with a plastic spatula (freeze sprays can be bought from cleaning product manufacturers or in pharmacies).
Paint mark removal • Do not use abrasive cleaning equipment (e.g. Scotch Brite, scouring pads, steel wool, etc.).• Use the solvent for the paint if known. If the solvent is not known, start with solvents such as
Essence C, White Spirit, etc. before trying stronger solvents such as Taraclean spray. If the stain proves hard to remove, do not persist.• Wipe and rinse the floor thoroughly after applying the solvent.
On paint dripsA freeze spray will yield excellent results when paint has formed a drip on the material (freeze sprays can be bought from cleaning product manufacturers or in pharmacies).
On adhesive marks • Fresh acrylic adhesive marks (< 1 month) Apply a water-based solution with added cleaning product, leave to act and mechanically clean and
rinse the floor.• Dried acrylic adhesive marks (> 1 month) Use Essence C or White Spirit. Wipe and rinse the floor thoroughly after applying the solvent.• Solvent adhesive marks Use strong solvents (such as Taraclean spray), but do not persist if the adhesive marks are difficult
to remove (as may happen with solvent-resistant cross-linked adhesives).
TIPS AND ADVICE FOR STAIN REMOVAL
• Never use abrasive disks or any procedure that risks damaging the surface treatment (abrasive products, solvents, etc.).
• Never use rubber caps (for chair legs or other furniture); instead, use PVC or Polyethylene caps.
